I have really been looking forward to spring and the fresh local asparagus and one of the first things that I wanted to make with it was some crispy baked asparagus fries! Ever since I discovered that you can coat vegetables in panko bread crumbs and bake them that they would become healthy 'fries' I have been doing it with pretty much every vegetable that I can get my hands on. Given that asparagus is already in perfect 'fry' shape it seemed only natural to turn them in fries and it couldn't be easier to do so! You pretty much just need to dredge the asparagus in flour, dip in egg, coat in panko breadcrumbs and bake until crispy. All said and told you can be enjoying these healthy baked asparagus fries in about 20 minutes so you can make them whenever you want. If you are a fan of asparagus, you will definitely enjoy these asparagus fries and they might just be that one new asparagus that you absolutely need to try this spring!

I just made this. It was so delicious! I served it with a Mahi sandwich, and I didn't miss the French fries at all. I didn't serve it with the Hollandaise. Instead, I served it with creamy Caesar with a dash of horseradish mustard. Thanks for the recipe!

Gorgeous asparagus and the texture is inspired!..Question...could I possibly sub something not wheat-based for the panko bread crumbs? Ground nut meals...coconut flakes...ground oats or flaxseed?..I so want to attempt this, but wish to replicate the "crunch factor" so obviously present in your lovely offering...Thanks for any insight!

Hi, I am new to healthy eating, so my question is how is this healthy when the calorie count is 312 for just 2 coated spears? I made it tonight and it was super yummy thank you for sharing this treat with the world!

My family has tried two of the recipes from your site, and I'm not sure why we haven't tried more. We did this one and the basil chicken one, and they're both SO fantastic. Thanks for sharing... I'll definitely be looking to your site for future meal planning.
